Maria and her husband Pol and family were the best hosts I think I might have ever experienced in my many years of airb and being. They were extremely gracious and fun hosts, with good English and a worldy view, ready for great conversation should you so desire. Extremely helpful in all regards and friendly, almost feeling like being welcomed into their home. They can tell you all about life in Bangkok and Thailand but you can be left alone as you wish. Their restaurant serves excellent Thai food and the discount and complimentary breakfast had me wanting to stay there each night and lunch, trying everything on the menu. It is about 15 minute walk to the MRT and BTS. The neighborhood is very safe and full of mostly Japanese bars and restaurants, but not far from other foreign and asian restaurants. The room was very comfortable with everything you might need. It would be a bit tight for 2 persons but perfect for one. I highly recommend this as a place to spend your days in Bangkok.
